Our Firm

 

Why Sturgeon Capital?

The Sturgeon has been in existence for some 200 million years, compared to the human race which has been in existence for a mere 1 million. Over that period the Sturgeon has faced countless challenges to its existence but still it has managed to survive. Not only is the Sturgeon the very definition of resilience, adaptability, and triumph over adversity, it is highly regarded for its roe or eggs: Caviar. The best of these can be found in the Caspian Sea in Central Asia.

At Sturgeon Capital we strive to emulate the characteristics of our namesake. Through our extensive and thorough research process we navigate the harsh and challenging investment landscape of the Central Asian Frontier Markets. The results are the exclusive investment opportunities we provide access to for our investors, our protection of their capital, and superior long term returns.

We believe that superior returns may only be generated by independent thinking and extensive research. Independent thinking means avoiding the herd mentality, constantly questioning commonly accepted hypotheses and, most importantly, seizing opportunities that are below the radar screen and off the beaten track.

Information is sourced both through our local “antenna” networks and contacts, and our constant country and company visits. However, we also feel that with increasing correlations between global markets and asset classes it is important to focus on global macro-economic and political development as well.

Finally we believe in avoiding conflict of interest. In order to do so, we invest our money alongside investors on exactly the same terms.
